Joylyn

I finally like my name now
for many years I thought it was so strange  
and maybe I should change
but I never could quite do it
so many names are the same.
Most people said it was beautiful
but some didn't like it at all
many have tried to shorten it
but it's just two little words that's all.
Put together to make one
no simpler could it be.
But many like to make it difficult
oh, pronouncing it is so hard you see.
It's simply said the way it looks
please stop trying to make it so damn tough
but people are just that way.
I've had it for so long now
I see no reason to change.
